Wow. My mind is well and truly blown. I just watched the insanely odd Dark Star. I think pretty much everyone has heard of this movie, at least. It's the one where they have to talk the bomb out of blowing up. It's got a very leisurely pace, very 70s, the sort of thing you can just relax into. Great fun. More fun than a lot of modern movies and made on about as much money as I got paid for tonight's work in the bar. Watch for the elevator that's actually a trolley being pushed down a hall. Brilliant. Pure class. And a half.
Incidentally, if you're interested in how one might go about talking a bomb out of blowing up, or you've seen the movie and just want to relive what made it such an excellent piece of work, there's a reproduction of the 'Socratic phenomenology lesson' at this place.
